Abstract: | Introduction The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-response, evoked in mice by the overexpression of class I major histocompatibility complex
antigen (MHC-I), was proposed as a major mechanism responsible for skeletal muscle damage and dysfunction in autoimmune myositis.
The present study was undertaken to characterize in more detail the ER stress-response occurring in myofibers of patients
with inflammatory myopathies, focusing on the expression and distribution of Grp94, calreticulin and Grp75, three ER chaperones
involved in immunomodulation. |
